Market Research Future’s Review on Magnesium Chloride Market 


The Magnesium Chloride Market is expected to generate a revenue of more than thousand US dollars 379.2 million by the forecast year. The Global Magnesium Chloride Market could register a CAGR of 4.30% by the year 2030.The most commonly and naturally available mineral salt which can be extracted from brine and seawater is MgCl2 i.e. Magnesium Chloride. It has chemical properties like the bitter taste, powder form, colorless, and odorless. Its physical properties include water-soluble which makes it highly efficient in absorbing moisture when exposed in the hydrated state to the air. Magnesium chloride is formed by the process of neutralization by the reaction of base (solid magnesium hydroxide) with acid (hydrochloric acid) producing salt (Magnesium chloride (MgCl2)) and water (H2O).


The factor influencing the market growth is major because of the increasing demand for magnesium chloride in various industries. The component offers fast action of deicing ice over rock salt due to advanced chemical properties. This makes proactive use of the Magnesium chloride in geographically cooler countries where ice deposition occurs commonly on the surfaces of vehicles and roads. Magnesium Chloride is used to remove and defrost this ice to avoid accidents.


The different forms of Magnesium chloride available in the market have paved their way into the commercial and residential sectors. The global Magnesium Chloride market is rising at an astral rate owing to the influence of salt in various end-user industries.In order to secure a reliable supply of lithium carbonate, LG Energy Solution has just struck a contract with American company Compass Minerals. In June of this year, the two businesses agreed to a memorandum of understanding about lithium supply. Compass Minerals uses the Great Salt Lake in Utah, United States, to create potassium sulfate and magnesium chloride. The company plans to use the brine waste from this procedure to create lithium carbonate. The U.S. firm uses the environmentally beneficial direct lithium extraction (DLE) technique, which involves taking lithium straight out of salt lakes. There is less carbon dioxide released because to this technique.


COVID-19 Analysis:


The subsequent increase of the COVID 19 pandemic had hampered the growth of the market that is further going to impact the market price. Also, this is disrupting the supply chain mechanism. Many key market players have witnessed these disruptions due to the imposition of permanent and temporary lockdowns in various mushrooming economies. However, the demand and widespread increase of the drug delivery system during the times of the pandemic spread are majorly focusing on the market to grow by the end of the future forecast period in 2024. Many people have pre-existing adverse medical conditions like diabetics, as well as, asthma. This is further driving more people to demand magnesium chloride. These factors are combining and the result of this is the fueled sale and boosting the market production and global manufacturing in the future years. However, some of the government restrictions may intervene that might hamper the market growth during the spread of the global COVID 19 pandemic.The United States Geological Survey estimates that China generated roughly 19,000 metric tons of magnesite in 2019. Some of the largest consumers of magnesite in the country are the agricultural (fertilizers), chemical, construction, industrial, and refractory sectors. However, the recent COVID-19 outbreak has severely harmed the economies of all countries because to disruptions in trade. As a result of the closure of numerous end-user industries in the Asia-Pacific area in the year 2020, there will be reduced demand for magnesite.


Market Dynamics:



  • Drivers:


- Health benefits like optimized brain functioning, better heart health, improved nerve and muscle functionality, apt blood sugar levels, improved bone health, stronger immune system, negligible risk of migraines, and stronger immune system.


- The use of supplemented magnesium chloride in patients with heart diseases like heart attack, heart arrhythmias, and osteoporosis.


- Faster deicing of ice in cooler regions than rock salt.


- Increased use of Magnesium chloride in commercial and residential sectors due to various nutritional supplement values.


- Use of Magnesium to prevent wind erosion, remove dust mites, and soil stabilization to make it fertile.


- Use of Magnesium chloride for nutrition, medicine, gardening, and horticulture.


- Because of the low stability constant of magnesium chloride, it helps to maintain pH levels in the human body.




  •  Challenges:


- One of the major challenges faced by the Magnesium chloride market is to deal with the toxic nature of magnesium.The popular snow and ice melter PELADOW from OxyChem is now available in a 30 pound bag. Compared to the 50 pounds of magnesium chloride needed to melt the same area of ice, just one 30-pound bag of PELADOW will do the job. When compared to a 50 lb. bag of magnesium chloride, a 30 lb. bag of PELADOW provides the same coverage, so building managers, builders, and distributors may save money on product and transportation costs while making better use of warehouse space. Users of PELADOW can swiftly clear sidewalks to make them safer and increase the number of sites they can service daily. Ice melting tests at 20 degrees Fahrenheit show that PELADOW can break up more ice in 20 minutes than magnesium chloride can in an hour.


Technology Analysis:


The most commonly and naturally available mineral salt which can be extracted from brine and seawater is MgCl2 i.e. Magnesium Chloride. It has chemical properties like the bitter taste, powder form, colorless, and odorless. Its physical properties include water-soluble which makes it highly efficient in absorbing moisture when exposed in the hydrated state to the air.
